商品描述

This book is a timely and critical introduction for people who are interested in what data science is (and isn't), and how it should be applied. The language is conversational and the content is accessible for readers without a quantitative or computational background, but at the same time, it is also a practical overview of the field for the more technical readers. The overarching goal is to demystify the field and teach the reader how to develop an analytical mindset instead of following recipes. The book takes the scientist's approach of focusing on asking the right question at every step as the most important factor contributing to the success of a data science project. Upon finishing this book, the reader should be asking more questions than I have answered. This book is, therefore, a practising scientist's approach to explaining data science through questions and examples.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書是一本及時且關鍵的介紹,適合對數據科學(Data Science)感興趣的人,無論是了解其定義或範疇,以及如何應用數據科學。書中的語言輕鬆對話,內容對於沒有定量或計算背景的讀者來說也很容易理解,同時對於更具技術背景的讀者來說,這也是一個實用的領域概述。整體目標是揭開數據科學的神秘面紗,並教導讀者如何培養分析思維,而不是單純遵循既定的步驟。這本書採用科學家的方法,強調在每一步驟中提出正確問題的重要性,這是促成數據科學專案成功的關鍵因素。讀完本書後,讀者應該會提出比我所回答的問題還要多的問題。因此,本書是以實踐科學家的方式,通過問題和範例來解釋數據科學。
